A Biblioteca Escolar e o Desenvolvimento das Literacias (UAb)

Qual é o papel das bibliotecas escolares na escola atual? Como podem contribuir para o desenvolvimento das literacias das crianças e jovens? Com este curso irá explorar estas vertentes.

Este curso aberto oferece uma oportunidade para conhecer e explorar as potencialidades da biblioteca escolar no desenvolvimento das literacias, em especial na sua articulação com o contexto de sala de aula. Como pode a biblioteca escolar apoiar a leitura? Que estratégias podem ser usadas para desenvolver competências nas áreas da literacia da informação e da literacia para os média?
Vamos analisar conceitos e explorar formas de incrementar o uso da biblioteca escolar e dos seus recursos no desenvolvimento transversal das várias literacias indispensáveis para a construção de um percurso educativo de sucesso, mas também, num horizonte mais vasto, para a construção de uma cidadania ativa e responsável.
O curso destina-se sobretudo aos profissionais da educação, nomeadamente aos professores nas diferentes áreas curriculares. Mas tem igualmente interesse para bibliotecários da rede pública e todas as pessoas que se interessam pelas problemáticas que são objeto de reflexão.
Com a frequência deste curso irá:

  • Reconhecer o valor de novos modos de aprendizagem e de integração curricular associados à formação para as literacias;
  • Analisar o papel da biblioteca escolar no desenvolvimento das literacias em contexto educativo;
  • Problematizar as questões relacionadas com a leitura nas suas várias vertentes;

New Learning: Principles and Patterns of Pedagogy (Coursera)

Education is in a state of flux – transitioning from traditional architectures and practices to new ecologies of teaching and learning influenced by the tremendous social and technological changes of our times. What changes are afoot today in workplaces, civic life and everyday community life? What are their implications for education? What are the possible impacts of contemporary social transformations on teaching and learning - including in the areas of technology, media, globalization, diversity, changing forms of work in the “knowledge society”, and, in these contexts, changing learner needs and sensibilities? This course explores three pedagogical paradigms: “didactic”, “authentic” and “transformative” learning.
